FAQs

Kurdish runner rugs from the early 1900s are hand-woven textiles created by nomadic and village weavers in the Kurdistan region across Northwestern Persia and Anatolia. They are characterised by robust wool construction, saturated natural dyes, and geometric medallion designs suited for long, narrow spaces.

These runners are hand-knotted using hand-spun sheep wool for both the pile and the warp and weft foundation. Weavers utilised symmetrical (Ghiordes) knots, creating a thick, durable pile dyed with vegetable-based pigments such as madder root and indigo.

Authentic antique tribal rugs exhibit slight asymmetry in pattern and dimension due to hand-weaving on portable looms. Examining the reverse side reveals clear knot structure without synthetic backing, alongside natural dye variation known as abrash.

A long tribal runner introduces color and texture to hallways, entryways, or narrow galley kitchens. The geometric motifs complement polished timber floorboards or neutral stone floors in both contemporary and period homes.

Vacuum regularly using suction only without a rotating beater bar to prevent fibre damage. Position a quality underlay beneath the rug to prevent slipping and uneven wear, and address spills immediately with cold water and clean cloth blotting.
